Make your bath the focal point – even in a small bathroom you can do this by creating a feature wall behind it with a strong paint or tile color and by framing it with mirrors or pictures.

Find an organic shaped bath, and then put it in front of a wall of beautiful tiles

Super sized tiles, ideally in a natural stone will create a contemporary feel, particularly if they extend up the walls, too. Break up the monotony with large mirrors and a shapely suite.

Even the plainest, cheapest of bathroom suites can be better with smart storage – ideally something in real wood or stainless steel. Choose mirrored pieces to make a small space seem bigger.

There’s no reason not to resort to modern pieces in a room that otherwise has a country feel. Mirrored furniture will reflect light and stretch your space.

Pared down simplicity is the key to success in a contemporary bathroom, keeping the decor simple and displaying only your best accessories.

You can give a hotel like look in a small space with this bathroom, the curves of the bathe are ideal for a small space and even the loo is petite.

Just giving your bathroom a warm color scheme and accessorizing it with pretty pieces can give it a spare rustic feel. Here, a pale pink/beige creates a restful space.

If you can site your bathroom in a room that was once a bedroom, keep – or restore – period features, such as floors, fireplaces, shutters, and prettify them with stylish pieces, such as mirrors and sanitary ware.
